Fabrics Sample Pack

Product Code : LSK-CL-10258

Fabrics Sample Pack (SKU LSK-CL-10258) is a set of fabric swatches covering natural fibres, synthetics and performance textiles, held together by a tag with a key card for identification. Students handle, compare and test the swatches in lessons on fibres, materials and fabric properties, and in forensic fibre-evidence activities. Buyers can obtain the pack from Science Lab Supplies, which sends orders out of Ambala, India, to schools, colleges and resellers.

Specifications

Each swatch in the fabric pack has its own row in the table. In short, there are eight swatches: linen, cotton, silk, nylon, a spandex stretch fabric, a waterproof breathable membrane fabric, a synthetic thermal insulation fabric and PTFE-coated polycotton, each in a different colour and matched to a key card.

Applications and Experiments for the Fabrics Sample Pack

The swatches give a class real material to test instead of pictures. Students can compare feel, stretch, water resistance, warmth and burning behaviour, then relate each result to whether the fibre is natural or synthetic and to the uses of each fabric in clothing and outdoor gear.

• Middle school science: natural and synthetic fibres, from plant and animal sources to nylon.
• Chemistry of polymers: comparing synthetic fibres and coated fabrics.
• Forensic science: comparing fibre evidence with reference samples picked up with 14 or 20 cm stainless steel Forceps.
• Design and technology or textile courses: choosing fabrics for a purpose.

Burn tests on fabrics should be done only on tiny snippets held in metal Crucible Tongs over a heatproof tile, under teacher supervision.

Standard Scope of Supply

One pack holds the eight colour-coded fabric swatches, joined by a tag, plus a key card naming each fabric. No other test materials are included; tongs, lenses or water droppers for property tests can be quoted separately and listed on the same quotation as the pack.

Packing, MOQ and Lead Time

Ask for one pack for the teacher's desk or a pack per group. Every quotation shows packing, delivery time and price for your chosen quantity, and matching material samples from our school laboratory equipment range can be combined on it.

Under its Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship as a registered exporter to buyers in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, the Philippines, Nepal and Bangladesh. The contact page takes questions about the swatches, the enquiry cart collects a materials-lesson list, and the lab tender page handles tender paperwork.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which fabrics are in the Fabrics Sample Pack?
Linen, cotton, silk, nylon, a spandex stretch fabric, a waterproof breathable membrane fabric, a synthetic thermal insulation fabric and PTFE-coated polycotton, giving a spread of natural, synthetic and performance fabrics.

How do students know which swatch is which?
Every swatch is a different colour, and the key card in the pack links each colour to its fabric, so the pack can be used for blind identification tests.

Who supplies the Fabrics Sample Pack?
Science Lab Supplies provides the pack from Ambala, India. A teacher can request one pack or one per group, and contractors can include it in a larger science materials order.

Can the pack be used for forensic lessons?
Yes. The colour-coded swatches act as reference samples when students compare unknown fibres found at a staged crime scene, and the key card confirms each identification.
